If you're on ios(I'm not sure about android), you can setup a shortcut for when you open this specific app(ex: pjsk) and let it set it to DND immediately. It will also turn off once you use another application or exit the application. So, I hope that helps! ☺
especially when you're playing on phone i tried it once and i couldnt see ANYTHING. lucky i main ipad so it doesnt affect my gameplay much, but overral its best to turn it on
One of the most common reason also why don't play Easy or Normal difficulty because if you full combo those, you will not receive crystal rewards, unlike at Hard and higher difficulty.
It’s worth playing when you get to the point where upgrading Sekai items becomes worth it. Upgraded Sekai items give you a higher talent percentage boost on the characters associated with the item, you need coins to upgrade those and you run out quick
note: turning off mv is rlly important esp mv is bright like niccori & at gods mercy note 2: if you main on jp & decide to play on en for a round, the timing will be different so i put 0.5 on en
is it the same both ways?? i main en (timing 1.0) but i also play on jp (timing also 1.0) and i do see a timing difference, what should i change for jp?
I want to say, I went for: not being able to full combo goodbye declaration on hard to being able to fc usseewa, echo, UNDERWATER, nuh uh uh, love trial and many other songs on expert!! Not sure how it happened, but it’s a huge win in my book
Okay for some people mirrored mode might be easier for different songs. I think it might be due to maps having like right handed or left handed dominant maps and you can try like seeing for some maps on which you perform better. For me poem doll is easier for me on mirrored, all depends tho on which you're comfy but yeah
1. set up a comfortable speed 2. turn MV off to avoid distractions 3. fix timing setting (add some delay so u dont get punished for late notes) 4. try harder songs to practice 5. practice playing with more than 2 fingers 6. prepare for notes by looking at the top with your peripheral vision 7. cheese zigzag hold notes by just holding the lane regardless if they "zigzag" 8. use cards with accuracy skill 9. stop playing on easy/normal 10. play consistently
What if my hands are shaking for no reason and mid song i feel like my hands froze and shaking so badly. (My right hand dont do this its my left hand often. Its really annoying that i play and get 400 combo then my left hand freeze and start to shake)
personally i have my offset to 1.7 because i use bluetooth headphones, and it creates a delay, and when i changed the offset to 1.7 i started full comboing more, so it really depends on if you use bluetooth headphones or headphones at all!
okay a note on looking at the top of the lane because that wont actually work for total beginners: it depends on your speed!! i've played on 11.2 speed for years and that makes looking at the top lane beneficial to me,but i have beginner friends who play on like a 6.0 and they've genuinely struggled with the timing when they look at the top of the lane. basically, the lower the speed the lower down the lane you look. this also applies to songs that change speed in the middle, to get the timing right on slower notes look towards the bottom of the lane or else youll click too fast another tip might not work for everyone but if you have bad eyesight i suggest turning up your screen brightness it definitely helps with seeing the notes better. im legally blind and i struggle with rhythm games where the notes dont contrast with the background very well lol sorry this is very wordy lol i hope it makes sense also i have never heard people call accuracy cards perfect lockers that sounds so strange to me 😭😭
3:33 wait.. SOME PEOPLE DON'T LOOK AT THE TOP???? I've been playing rhythm games like this for ages.... also, I tried playing with more fingers but if I click and slide too hard, the phone slides away, and if I click and slide normaly, the phone doesn't feel my fingers, I wonder if it's the phone's sensibility...
@@Koushi39 well, I usually put the phone in the couch, my thigh/leg or a cushion, because in a table it slides like hell 💀, but like I said, when it doesn't slides, the phone doesn't feel my fingers clicking, so it may be the sensibility of the phone, but if I put the sensibility too high it will think I'm always clicking at something by the slightest touch so I keep playing with thumbs.
@@funplayer05.1 yeah I hold the phone too 😭, just when trying to play with fingers that I don't hold it. I can't fc even some level 26 musics 😨 but then there's "Brain Fluid Explosion Girl" level 28, where I got only 4 goods in first try 💀💀 it's not that hard compared to other level 28 musics
@@heymoonon oh, I thought I was the only one with phone sensitivity problems, the phone kept on not sensing my finger like once when I try to fc bug which practically makes it impossible for me to fc bug. it's just pain tbh fyi I hold my phone and play with thumbs too
Some tips I'd like to talk about: For speed, I'd suggest adjusting faster over time but you can start slow. Most rhythm game starters cannot understand notes in a short time and slow speed is alright. However, slow speed makes getting better accuracy harder, so if you're aiming for FC or AP, you can always go for faster speed. Just note that increasing way too much speed will make proseka a reaction game more than a rhythm game. By meaning trying harder songs IT DOES NOT MEAN skipping a whole lotta difficulties that you're comfortable with because you'll just not understand at all and maybe get worse stamina and loss of motivation. at most +2 or +3 difficulties of the difficulties you're familiar with. Multifingers are a must not just because 37s or append need more than two fingers, but they can make your life way easier. For reading notes, if you're sightreading just look at the top. If you're trying to AP or FC a song you can always look at the bottom. I would NOT SUGGEST using perfect locker cards. Although it can make FC/AP easier in the long term you'll get worse accuracy because of the 25 seconds of basically free perfects, making you not improve at all. Easy/Normal difficulty can be used as practicing tempo to AP songs so it is not directly useless. And yes if you want to improve in anything all you need is to practice and work harder. Here are my other tips on how to be better: 1) Play other rhythm games. Playing other rhythm games can make your skills better because you get to know more charts and how they work. A reminder is don't play "rhythm games" that aren't rhythm games like Geometry Dash and rhythm games with too high a perfection range, they won't improve your skill. Also, if a rhythm game is not based on accuracy and skill, don't play it. Here are some games I recommend: Arcaea: Good skill booster and has almost the same perfection range as proseka. Also, no combo score which makes the game more fun. The only downsides are the F2P content is low and grind is needed; arcs and crosshands can be annoying. Also, ratings can be frustrating but you can just turn it off. CHUNITHM: basically proseka but arcade. The game is more focused on multiple notes and has a wider difficulty range, which you can hop in the game anytime. And yes no combo score. The only downsides are arcade games may be age-restricted and you need a lot of tokens or money for it. Also, rating exists as well. 2) Set goals. This is quite obvious and you need to have goals to improve. Take an example, full combo-ing three 32s before moving on to 33s. This is to prevent way too high skill jumps and you can adapt the next difficulty quite easily. There are definitely more tips out there but because of the type limit I'll stop here.
Easy and normal exist for people who don't play rythym games. Like me. I went from struggling on easy to clearing level all 24 songs with ease in about a month's time. I truly would not have been able to do that without the easy modes though.
Tips from someone thats played other rhythm games before: Don't use bluetooth headphones/earbuds, the delay is just that bad most of the time (especially for me on my phone I notice the delay even when using the phone normally it's ridiculous, plus the delay is inconsistent so I can't just fix it) so either get wired ones (there are ones that connect via usb-c that you can get) or play on speaker Actually have your hitsounds on, and maybe make them louder than the music, that way you get clear auditory feedback for your hits, As another commenter pointed out, make sure you turn on Do Not Disturb Also have the game be the only app you have open if you get lag, that way your phone only has the one app to worry about and you're less likely to get lag Try playing songs outside of your comfort zone, but not too far out of said comfort zone, you're not going to make any progress improving your skill if you just die instantly (or even on JP where you can keep playing, you still won't make any progress if you miss every note)
@WakeUpMizukiyour not alone on that I feel like I’m on life support when playing some expert songs, but I have unlocked some master songs as well! (Mostly really easy songs)
I'm also practicing expert! I can barely escape with my life on level 26, but 25 and lower I do ok. My first level 27 was Theme of Niccori Servey team and Tomo Wonders, and uh, it didn't go so well 😅
i mean they dont actually have more than 2 notes to hit at any 1 point of time, just that you will need to be able to make your thumb clip through the other and be able to play trills with thumbs overlapping each other at 200+ bpm, hold cross screen sliders and also get a seizure from playing lv 34s
Mv isn't as flashy in diva except for some songs like jigsaw puzzle. Personally I feel like diva is easier when it comes to mv alone bcs of the good speed there
@@florian8634 Mvs aren't flashy but they're way too bright, i always play with mv on in projevt sekai so im used to it but i have the brightnesd at 50%. In project diva i can't lower the brightness so its more difficult to see all the notes
@iexist_nt diva can't lagspike you since it's made for specifically that device (except for the PC version since PCs varie). Pjsk continuesly needs a better phone/tablet so if your device is old then lags may happen
I have adhd and personally actually surprisingly find turning mvs on to be better for my own concentration, i dont really know why, its definitely a personal thing tho, i can see how they're probably distracting for most
Fun fact: Most of the songs I FC’d were with mv’s and it didn’t disrupt my view at all until I wanted to fc non-breath oblige and just turned off the mv’s
Healthy Reminder 🎀: Rember, at the end of the day, it’s a game with gambling, characters (some silly and some relatable) and fire music, don’t put too much stress or overwork yourself if you feel like you’re not improving. Developing takes time, who knows if you play everyday you might adapt and increase your difficulty, like the video mentions xD I’m also gonna try to play with index, I’m always a thumb person but maybe I could multi-task haha
i joined pjsk like 4 weeks ago, and i quickly went to expert. my highest level i can do well is 26, still improving. its not easy, just keep practicing and dont make yourself miserable. its supposed to be fun, so go one step at a time!
I remember in my very first weeks in Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! I used to play right at hard and expert because I thought that I would improve my skills faster and it actually helped me a lot even though I was completely failing at first but I've improved in just a few days/weeks pretty well!
another tip is to turn off the character skill pop ups, as it is useful to know when the skill is activated but it can also become easily distracting. also, if you do want to keep MVs on remember to increase the brightness of your lane and lower the brightness of the MV, it'll make it a little easier!
personally I do easy and normal modes to ap them so I can improve my accuracy, as I tend to get a lot of greats 😭 it helps me a lot tho, not sure if it’ll work for you guys
I think I’m good at pjsk because I can play like 29+ but this video still help me! . idk use 2 fingers for long note and use characters for ap is really help so much!!😅
My way of improving in PJSK, namely when I first started was just unlocking most of the songs in the game, sorting by level, and clearing as many as I can. 1 month later, and now my highest lv clears are Expert What's up? Pop! and Master mode Butterfly on your shoulder (both lv 31). I can comfortably full combo songs around lv 24, and my highest lv FC was master mode lv 27 Daughter of Evil. It's gonna be painful having to switch to fingers one day since I've been playing thumbs for this entire time
I know this video is 2 months old but I have point out somethings, while I myself can't relate to what I'm gonna say not everybody can start at hard difficulty and that's fine that's the reason normal and easy exist, also another thing to remember is while it's important to play harder songs, don't play songs you can't properly process/play because if you do you might develop bad habits such as tensing your hands or other similar stuff, plus if you don't take the time to properly learn the basics you will run into a skill wall. I did enjoy the video tho.
3:33 I don’t reccomend doing this, I don’t know a lot if it matters to people who play on very hard master charts, but as someone who’s fc’d every expert on the english server, ap’d up to 30 and have a few ap’s on expert and master, i reccomend looking at the high-middle or dead middle of the screen, notes appear extremely small and if you aren’t consistently looking at the note, you might miss the size or something. it’s hard to look at every note once at a time especially on harder charts
For number two, not many people know this I think but you can actually lower the background brightness down to half. That may not sound like much but for me, it helped a lot while also not making me bored with the background MV.
Honestly using P-lockers only improves whatever score you get in terms of great-good-bad (not miss, it doesn’t work on those) but it doesnt really help you play better, if anything, worse cuz you just go through difficult parts by randomly tapping and p-lock will make everything perfect anyway
Trying out harder songs definitely helped me improve! I used to not make it past halfway through The Intense Voice Of Hatsune Miku but now I can at least finish it. I improved a bit at the spam part but not fully, but still its a great improvement!
These were just about everything I did! I came in with this being my very first non-puzzle mobile game. I came in with a LOT of DDR experience and a handful of 3/DS rhythm games, so not completely new, but I hadn't played a rhythm game with my fingers before. Since Dec 2022, I went from struggling to combo a 5 (I know) to being able to FC some 26's. Not as impressive as a lot of people, I know, but it's a pretty marked improvement for me. I practiced since the beginning using a piano-finger style (3-4 fingers on one hand), and there have definitely been sections where I'm impressed that people do it with thumbs. It definitely makes some things a lot easier. The goals bit is really true. For me, goals are the most fun way to play. FC every song at a certain level, FC any songs where Master is unlocked, even stuff like "get an S in all Easy songs" at this point at least helps with focusing on the rhythm for the song. At least for me, that's the most important part. Good work on the video!
another tip i find helpful is to turn off the voice for skill activation and the showing of skill activation cuz it can be distracting,and turn down the note sound a bit
i am never turning off mvs unless its the really bright ones like in bug! ive already full comboed almost every expert mode song besides like 6 with them!!
Yeah, I don't really plan to turn them off either. Maybe if I play co-op, or am really struggling to fc a song, but other than that, it's pretty easy to ignore, and I like the pretty colors in my peripheral vision. Kinda like how I don't turn off the character interactions. My brain easily tunes them out. Also, whenever I hear "Wandahoi," it fills me with DETERMINATION!
Other tips I would add are: Actually to make the flick notes you don't need such an abrupt movement, a small but quick swipe of the finger is enough for the game to take it as valid. This way you will be able to recover more quickly after the flick notes. Another tip is: To find your right note speed, it must have the following requirements: 1. You must be able to react in time, not to be taken by surprise. 2. It must be fast enough so that you can easily distinguish when you should hit the note even if they are close together. Although this can change with fast songs, as mentioned in the video. 3. You should be able to calculate by muscle memory when to touch the screen without looking at the bottom and always looking at the top, where the notes are coming from. This way you will be able to handle much better higher velocities and react faster. This one is pretty hard. So you should rely on 1st and 2nd tips to do this one. Because this one is just practice, but you shouldn't practice on a speed that doesn't follow the 1st and 2nd tips.
Now, if those players or newbies want to improve your project sekai skills, I suggest you try to use more than 2 fingers. Recently, the charts of Sekai’s new songs are very complicated. I used to use my thumbs from the beginning of sekai release until the end of last year and started using 4 fingers. I think it would be more comfortable with 4 fingers because using my thumb feels very restrictive, so I started buying tablets to play with. Now I still have to practice 6 fingers. There are other optional ones. It is recommended to use or change the device that can achieve a high refresh rate display and better processor as the spam notes / high level songs require a better cpu and gpu speed to render them properly (Try to use flagship or midrange level, tablet type). If you can't afford it, or you think your current device is quite comfortable to use to play Sekai, you can continue to use it no problem, I'm not forcing you. Also, the sitting posture is very important, find a more comfortable position. Especially if you want to play on the table with a tablet or phone, use a non-slip mat
is it weird that i always play with 2dmv/3dmv but i’ve gotten like 10 full combos? (not on just easy songs either) Edit: I also just remembered I almost got a full combo on bug, i just messed up at the end and i also cant full combo on lite either
PEOPLE LOOK AT THE TOP?! Personally, i can’t do that because my eyes cannot concentrate when i look at the top and have a NEED to look in the middle, if i try looking at the top my eyes cannot handle it and start looking back and forth from middle to top which makes it harder for me to play like that probably bc i haven’t gotten really used to it bc since i started playing i have always looked in the middle 😭😭
Last tip is so true. I keep taking long breaks throughout playing this game and bc of that I kinda lost my “peak” and can’t fc master songs or clear lvl 32++ or append songs. Doesn’t seem so bad until every average player can do that which is rlly demotivating
i need to learn to play with multiple fingers 😭 i play with my thumbs while holding my phone. my highest difficulty fc is sweety glitch master (my only 29) but ive pretty much been stuck at 27-28 forever
Another tip: sometimes when my fingers get addicted to play some note wrong, I play other songs, but if this doesn't help, I just mirror the map, it helped me a lot with some songs that I always missed at the exactly same note
I started with easy mode because i didn't know much about rhythm games. Looking back it was actually harder than i thought lol. Now i play expert but some songs are difficult a bit
As someone who normally plays with the MV on i tend to lose my combo pretty fast, but i still play with them on either way. But turning it off for once helped!
as someone who's been playing since mid 2022 and kept reinstalling the game and actually continued during my march 14 I wish I followed tip number 4 during when I was a newbie, I started to play expert during may and I wished I played more harder songs during april since I was very comfortable with the hard mode back then and had fc'd intense voice and dissapearance
if you’re completely new to rhythm games, do play easy/normal difficulty. immediately jumping to hard is really difficult. i remember when i first started playing rhythm games i could not clear past 3s on arcaea (arcaea was my first rhythm game)
I love awake now's hold note, even though i don't do i right it's funny how i use one thumb and slide under the other thumb to do the slides notes. I should switch thumbs instead in the same hold note lol
Very good video but I would just nitpick about using the accuracy skill (the one that makes great and good perfect). For me it would be best to not use it so that you can practice your timing on notes and as well as making accurate taps properly without relying on skills... So that's about it really great video and I hope someone might find it helpful❤❤
For me I started at hard with the most easy hard songs then worked my way up same with expert and master I recommend adjusting the settings to your own liking personally I play mirrored, multi tap lines off, background 50% and 11 speed it’s up to you on your own preference
Tips from me to improve if u are New. 1). If u are newbie. use 9.0-9.5 BPM for one 1month after that change it to 10-11 (now mine 11.3) 2). Play hard till u can tap the notes 85% or above perfect (for me it took 1week because I was playing bandori for a long time before play pjsk) 3). After u can get 85%+ perfect on hard. U can try low lvl expert. ex lvl23 or 24. And stop playing low lvl hard (just play hard on hardest song ex: yaminabe, whats up pop, end of hatsune miku, etc.) 4). After that u can try medium lvl expert lvl25-27 (ex: ussewa, roki, etc.) 5). Keep playing expert lvl 6). Keep playing expert lvl 7). Get few full combo on expert 8). Move to low lvl master (ex: aishite aishite aishite, etc) and try hardest song in expert. 9). Keep playing 10). Keep playinh 11). Now u are master of this game. Im start playing this game from covid social distancing. But my phone only can get 45-50fps on this game. So that time im only playing for few month. And start playing it jagain after i get a New phone (New year2023) Im not that good in this game but i can do lvl 32 song after focus playing it for a year.
3:57 Please don’t use perfect lock cards if you’re trying to improve at the game, it’s mostly just for getting FCs and APs, you won’t really improve at the game if you reply of them too much
few notes to take into consideration is although playing harder charts will increase your skill faster don’t play anything unreadable (unless its for fun) if you can’t read the patterns you won’t learn much. progressing through charts that are just outside of your comfort zone will insure results opposed from playing something completely outside of your skill range. next thing i’d like to address is perfect lockers. although they’re good in a casual sense if you truly want to improve at the game i’d recommend avoiding them if possible. they’ll only activate during a specific section in each song so unless you struggle in said spot they won’t really help and if you’re using a 4 star variant you can just mash your screen. if said cards are skill level 4 across the whole team thats 35 seconds out of the average 2 minute song that you can just mash which is pretty good portion. if skill is what you wanna achieve plocks prob aren’t for you, if you don’t care to much then they’ll help with combo/acc and what not this is coming from a player that can fc up to mas 32s and ap up to mas 31s (depending on the chart) hope some of this advice is helpful
Yeah one of the ways i definitely improved was just throwing myself into random master charts, im slowly being able to get most masters (up to like 28 and some 29s) down to like 2-5 misses
My clicks don't register for a frame and I get a guaranteed of 2 misses or more included with that how do I fix it? I did everything possible but not factory reset since I don't trust the cloud save of google
might be a phone issue i don't really know much but i can totally say you don't wanna trust google saving your data (i lost my lvl 146 en acc since i dropped my old phone and it broke)
Ok, but how to train with more two fingers? At the first i already knew that pjsk better played with more than two fingers, but i don't know how to train it with my own fingers, i keep struggling with it, can you make video to train with that playstyle??
For the 2cd thing this is kinda weird but when I play machine poem doll without mv I do so horrible but everytime with the mv I do very good..?!?!? Like 😭
Same!! I find that having the mv in the bg takes my mind off the stress of hitting all the notes perfectly and also the lite screen bg gives me cringe 2015 gamer outro vibe😭
as all my devices never had great performance, i always set most settings to minimal, as fps is required for rhythm games. i kinda assumed everyone also has this issue. now I'm pondering here like "people have enough performance to play w mv without framerate drops?"
me who literally full combo'd bugu bugu with 2D mv today also almost full combo'd more jump more with 2d mv [2 misses] am i immune to missing when im distracted expert difficulty btw
Most 2dmvs can make the notes looks invisible too, so make the bg too lite so it can't be blocked! (Og MVs like copycat aren't that bright so it might not make the notes invisible but, instead it's visible.)
yall they made me mute the entire part of me playing BUG 😭🙏
but you get the point of turning off the mv right.
At 1:51 I can hear the music
Chat I FC BUG expert mode on 2dmv idk how i did it...
and the most important tip : dont forget to turn on do not disturb!
There was I time I kept getting notifications it was so frustrating 😫
If you're on ios(I'm not sure about android), you can setup a shortcut for when you open this specific app(ex: pjsk) and let it set it to DND immediately. It will also turn off once you use another application or exit the application. So, I hope that helps! ☺
once I was playing then suddenly someone call me and my combo was gone all bcs of them. 😤
especially when you're playing on phone
i tried it once and i couldnt see ANYTHING. lucky i main ipad so it doesnt affect my gameplay much, but overral its best to turn it on
turn on guided access on ios for no notifs and so u don't accidentally swipe out :P
One of the most common reason also why don't play Easy or Normal difficulty because if you full combo those, you will not receive crystal rewards, unlike at Hard and higher difficulty.
It’s worth playing when you get to the point where upgrading Sekai items becomes worth it. Upgraded Sekai items give you a higher talent percentage boost on the characters associated with the item, you need coins to upgrade those and you run out quick

personally i have my offset to 1.7 because i use bluetooth headphones, and it creates a delay, and when i changed the offset to 1.7 i started full comboing more, so it really depends on if you use bluetooth headphones or headphones at all!
yeah i was using wired earphones so i stated having more than a 1 second offset is outrageous
but it really depends on what you're using

fyi I hold my phone and play with thumbs too
Some tips I'd like to talk about:
For speed, I'd suggest adjusting faster over time but you can start slow. Most rhythm game starters cannot understand notes in a short time and slow speed is alright. However, slow speed makes getting better accuracy harder, so if you're aiming for FC or AP, you can always go for faster speed. Just note that increasing way too much speed will make proseka a reaction game more than a rhythm game.
By meaning trying harder songs IT DOES NOT MEAN skipping a whole lotta difficulties that you're comfortable with because you'll just not understand at all and maybe get worse stamina and loss of motivation. at most +2 or +3 difficulties of the difficulties you're familiar with.
Multifingers are a must not just because 37s or append need more than two fingers, but they can make your life way easier.
For reading notes, if you're sightreading just look at the top. If you're trying to AP or FC a song you can always look at the bottom.
I would NOT SUGGEST using perfect locker cards. Although it can make FC/AP easier in the long term you'll get worse accuracy because of the 25 seconds of basically free perfects, making you not improve at all.
Easy/Normal difficulty can be used as practicing tempo to AP songs so it is not directly useless.
And yes if you want to improve in anything all you need is to practice and work harder.
Here are my other tips on how to be better:
1) Play other rhythm games.
Playing other rhythm games can make your skills better because you get to know more charts and how they work. A reminder is don't play "rhythm games" that aren't rhythm games like Geometry Dash and rhythm games with too high a perfection range, they won't improve your skill. Also, if a rhythm game is not based on accuracy and skill, don't play it. Here are some games I recommend:
Arcaea: Good skill booster and has almost the same perfection range as proseka. Also, no combo score which makes the game more fun. The only downsides are the F2P content is low and grind is needed; arcs and crosshands can be annoying. Also, ratings can be frustrating but you can just turn it off.
CHUNITHM: basically proseka but arcade. The game is more focused on multiple notes and has a wider difficulty range, which you can hop in the game anytime. And yes no combo score. The only downsides are arcade games may be age-restricted and you need a lot of tokens or money for it. Also, rating exists as well.
2) Set goals. This is quite obvious and you need to have goals to improve. Take an example, full combo-ing three 32s before moving on to 33s. This is to prevent way too high skill jumps and you can adapt the next difficulty quite easily.
There are definitely more tips out there but because of the type limit I'll stop here.
i can totally agree on not playing geometry dash as a rhythm game since it really isnt 😭🙏
Is bandori good to improve in pjsk?
@@4evaw0n13 maybe? i recommend phigros more though
Easy and normal exist for people who don't play rythym games. Like me. I went from struggling on easy to clearing level all 24 songs with ease in about a month's time. I truly would not have been able to do that without the easy modes though.
Tips from someone thats played other rhythm games before:
Don't use bluetooth headphones/earbuds, the delay is just that bad most of the time (especially for me on my phone I notice the delay even when using the phone normally it's ridiculous, plus the delay is inconsistent so I can't just fix it) so either get wired ones (there are ones that connect via usb-c that you can get) or play on speaker
Actually have your hitsounds on, and maybe make them louder than the music, that way you get clear auditory feedback for your hits,
As another commenter pointed out, make sure you turn on Do Not Disturb
Also have the game be the only app you have open if you get lag, that way your phone only has the one app to worry about and you're less likely to get lag
Try playing songs outside of your comfort zone, but not too far out of said comfort zone, you're not going to make any progress improving your skill if you just die instantly (or even on JP where you can keep playing, you still won't make any progress if you miss every note)
This helps a lot! I used to play an Hard but I'm slowly becoming an Expert user!
@WakeUpMizuki it's okay! practice means perfect ☆
@WakeUpMizukiyour not alone on that I feel like I’m on life support when playing some expert songs, but I have unlocked some master songs as well! (Mostly really easy songs)
I'm also practicing expert! I can barely escape with my life on level 26, but 25 and lower I do ok. My first level 27 was Theme of Niccori Servey team and Tomo Wonders, and uh, it didn't go so well 😅
@@HappyXID it's ok! my first level 28 was Brain Fluid Explosion Girl!
@@crystals25 I don't have any level 28 songs, so that probably why I haven't played that one yet. Is it good? Was the chart fun?
You can fc some songs above lvl 34 on thumbs, it's just really hard
i mean they dont actually have more than 2 notes to hit at any 1 point of time, just that you will need to be able to make your thumb clip through the other and be able to play trills with thumbs overlapping each other at 200+ bpm, hold cross screen sliders and also get a seizure from playing lv 34s
not true, you can literally search up end mark mas fc on thumb@@doge2845
My friend has rokuchounen fc (mas 35) on thumbs so its possible
I wish turning off the music video was in project diva
Mv isn't as flashy in diva except for some songs like jigsaw puzzle. Personally I feel like diva is easier when it comes to mv alone bcs of the good speed there
My best FC on diva is 8.5 (odds ends) meanwhile on pjsekai is 31 (lower ones eyes) and for both it took quite a while to get better
@@florian8634 Mvs aren't flashy but they're way too bright, i always play with mv on in projevt sekai so im used to it but i have the brightnesd at 50%. In project diva i can't lower the brightness so its more difficult to see all the notes
at least project diva didn't lag spike you to death within 0.1 seconds of starting the show
@iexist_nt diva can't lagspike you since it's made for specifically that device (except for the PC version since PCs varie). Pjsk continuesly needs a better phone/tablet so if your device is old then lags may happen
I have adhd and personally actually surprisingly find turning mvs on to be better for my own concentration, i dont really know why, its definitely a personal thing tho, i can see how they're probably distracting for most
Fun fact: Most of the songs I FC’d were with mv’s and it didn’t disrupt my view at all until I wanted to fc non-breath oblige and just turned off the mv’s
Healthy Reminder 🎀:
Rember, at the end of the day, it’s a game with gambling, characters (some silly and some relatable) and fire music, don’t put too much stress or overwork yourself if you feel like you’re not improving. Developing takes time, who knows if you play everyday you might adapt and increase your difficulty, like the video mentions xD
I’m also gonna try to play with index, I’m always a thumb person but maybe I could multi-task haha
keep your fingers relaxed and loose -> tensing them will make it harder and give you major hand pain
i joined pjsk like 4 weeks ago, and i quickly went to expert. my highest level i can do well is 26, still improving. its not easy, just keep practicing and dont make yourself miserable. its supposed to be fun, so go one step at a time!
I remember in my very first weeks in Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! I used to play right at hard and expert because I thought that I would improve my skills faster and it actually helped me a lot even though I was completely failing at first but I've improved in just a few days/weeks pretty well!
another tip is to turn off the character skill pop ups, as it is useful to know when the skill is activated but it can also become easily distracting. also, if you do want to keep MVs on remember to increase the brightness of your lane and lower the brightness of the MV, it'll make it a little easier!
i forgot about that since in the jp server they dont pop up in the middle anymore.
(they pop up on the left side of the screen now)
I did not know you can do that, thanks! I think it's an Early note every time xd
All master songs can be all perfected with two fingers except for lv37 though
Lvl 50 @WakeUpMizuki
@WakeUpMizuki lvl 500
Level 1000 💀
@WakeUpMizuki I think I’ve seen you before
personally I do easy and normal modes to ap them so I can improve my accuracy, as I tend to get a lot of greats 😭 it helps me a lot tho, not sure if it’ll work for you guys
I think I’m good at pjsk because I can play like 29+ but this video still help me! . idk use 2 fingers for long note and use characters for ap is really help so much!!😅
glad i was able to help :3
i pressed on this video and got an ensekai ad for ifuudoudou 😭😭
Instructions unclear, I am now an addict
FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONED LOOKING AT THE TOP!
My way of improving in PJSK, namely when I first started was just unlocking most of the songs in the game, sorting by level, and clearing as many as I can. 1 month later, and now my highest lv clears are Expert What's up? Pop! and Master mode Butterfly on your shoulder (both lv 31). I can comfortably full combo songs around lv 24, and my highest lv FC was master mode lv 27 Daughter of Evil. It's gonna be painful having to switch to fingers one day since I've been playing thumbs for this entire time
i had no idea you were supposed to look at the top and its already helped me a bunch
I know this video is 2 months old but I have point out somethings, while I myself can't relate to what I'm gonna say not everybody can start at hard difficulty and that's fine that's the reason normal and easy exist, also another thing to remember is while it's important to play harder songs, don't play songs you can't properly process/play because if you do you might develop bad habits such as tensing your hands or other similar stuff, plus if you don't take the time to properly learn the basics you will run into a skill wall. I did enjoy the video tho.
3:33 I don’t reccomend doing this, I don’t know a lot if it matters to people who play on very hard master charts, but as someone who’s fc’d every expert on the english server, ap’d up to 30 and have a few ap’s on expert and master, i reccomend looking at the high-middle or dead middle of the screen, notes appear extremely small and if you aren’t consistently looking at the note, you might miss the size or something. it’s hard to look at every note once at a time especially on harder charts
For number two, not many people know this I think but you can actually lower the background brightness down to half. That may not sound like much but for me, it helped a lot while also not making me bored with the background MV.
Honestly using P-lockers only improves whatever score you get in terms of great-good-bad (not miss, it doesn’t work on those) but it doesnt really help you play better, if anything, worse cuz you just go through difficult parts by randomly tapping and p-lock will make everything perfect anyway
Exactly what i thought
Thank you, it really helped
Trying out harder songs definitely helped me improve! I used to not make it past halfway through The Intense Voice Of Hatsune Miku but now I can at least finish it. I improved a bit at the spam part but not fully, but still its a great improvement!
I’m already great (hardest is end of hatsune Miku 35) so I dunno why I’m watching this but mvs actually help my muscle memory😭
These were just about everything I did! I came in with this being my very first non-puzzle mobile game. I came in with a LOT of DDR experience and a handful of 3/DS rhythm games, so not completely new, but I hadn't played a rhythm game with my fingers before. Since Dec 2022, I went from struggling to combo a 5 (I know) to being able to FC some 26's. Not as impressive as a lot of people, I know, but it's a pretty marked improvement for me. I practiced since the beginning using a piano-finger style (3-4 fingers on one hand), and there have definitely been sections where I'm impressed that people do it with thumbs. It definitely makes some things a lot easier.
The goals bit is really true. For me, goals are the most fun way to play. FC every song at a certain level, FC any songs where Master is unlocked, even stuff like "get an S in all Easy songs" at this point at least helps with focusing on the rhythm for the song. At least for me, that's the most important part. Good work on the video!
another tip i find helpful is to turn off the voice for skill activation and the showing of skill activation cuz it can be distracting,and turn down the note sound a bit
This usually works for moving hold notes but i make my fingers follow the diamonds in the middle
i am never turning off mvs unless its the really bright ones like in bug! ive already full comboed almost every expert mode song besides like 6 with them!!
Yeah, I don't really plan to turn them off either. Maybe if I play co-op, or am really struggling to fc a song, but other than that, it's pretty easy to ignore, and I like the pretty colors in my peripheral vision. Kinda like how I don't turn off the character interactions. My brain easily tunes them out. Also, whenever I hear "Wandahoi," it fills me with DETERMINATION!
The MV is distracting sometimes but at the same time it’s just so 💥💥
your punishment is im subscribing to you cuz this was so helpful
Other tips I would add are:
Actually to make the flick notes you don't need such an abrupt movement, a small but quick swipe of the finger is enough for the game to take it as valid. This way you will be able to recover more quickly after the flick notes.
Another tip is:
To find your right note speed, it must have the following requirements:
1. You must be able to react in time, not to be taken by surprise.
2. It must be fast enough so that you can easily distinguish when you should hit the note even if they are close together. Although this can change with fast songs, as mentioned in the video.
3. You should be able to calculate by muscle memory when to touch the screen without looking at the bottom and always looking at the top, where the notes are coming from. This way you will be able to handle much better higher velocities and react faster. This one is pretty hard. So you should rely on 1st and 2nd tips to do this one. Because this one is just practice, but you shouldn't practice on a speed that doesn't follow the 1st and 2nd tips.
Now, if those players or newbies want to improve your project sekai skills, I suggest you try to use more than 2 fingers. Recently, the charts of Sekai’s new songs are very complicated.
I used to use my thumbs from the beginning of sekai release until the end of last year and started using 4 fingers. I think it would be more comfortable with 4 fingers because using my thumb feels very restrictive, so I started buying tablets to play with. Now I still have to practice 6 fingers.
There are other optional ones. It is recommended to use or change the device that can achieve a high refresh rate display and better processor as the spam notes / high level songs require a better cpu and gpu speed to render them properly (Try to use flagship or midrange level, tablet type).
If you can't afford it, or you think your current device is quite comfortable to use to play Sekai, you can continue to use it no problem, I'm not forcing you.
Also, the sitting posture is very important, find a more comfortable position. Especially if you want to play on the table with a tablet or phone, use a non-slip mat
Use non slip mat is quite important 😅
is it weird that i always play with 2dmv/3dmv but i’ve gotten like 10 full combos? (not on just easy songs either)
Edit: I also just remembered I almost got a full combo on bug, i just messed up at the end and i also cant full combo on lite either
PEOPLE LOOK AT THE TOP?! Personally, i can’t do that because my eyes cannot concentrate when i look at the top and have a NEED to look in the middle, if i try looking at the top my eyes cannot handle it and start looking back and forth from middle to top which makes it harder for me to play like that probably bc i haven’t gotten really used to it bc since i started playing i have always looked in the middle 😭😭
i always look at the top and use my peripheral vision to look at the judgement line.
it's been the same since i started playing rhythm games
You can adjust the line of which notes come down on jp id you don’t like looking at the top
so short and easy to understand. I learnt 2 things from your video, thanks
3:39 the middle fits me becuz I can focus on the notes and I have a little blurry part where I can tap the notes
it depends on your scroll speed. if you have lower scroll speed, then looking at the center of the screen is okay. this applies to other VSRGs as well
Last tip is so true. I keep taking long breaks throughout playing this game and bc of that I kinda lost my “peak” and can’t fc master songs or clear lvl 32++ or append songs. Doesn’t seem so bad until every average player can do that which is rlly demotivating
THANKJ YOUUU I WAS ABLE TO GET MASTER ON 4 SONGS AND FC 3 EXPERTX!!! I ALSO ALMOST FCED INTENSE VOCIE???
i need to learn to play with multiple fingers 😭 i play with my thumbs while holding my phone. my highest difficulty fc is sweety glitch master (my only 29) but ive pretty much been stuck at 27-28 forever
I always play with my thumbs cause it’s easier 😭
2 is what i do since i love looking at the mvs i always turn it on to lite
The double note that VERY merged really give me anxiety everytime😭
Another tip: sometimes when my fingers get addicted to play some note wrong, I play other songs, but if this doesn't help, I just mirror the map, it helped me a lot with some songs that I always missed at the exactly same note
I started with easy mode because i didn't know much about rhythm games. Looking back it was actually harder than i thought lol. Now i play expert but some songs are difficult a bit
As someone who normally plays with the MV on i tend to lose my combo pretty fast, but i still play with them on either way. But turning it off for once helped!
#3 and #7 are the most helpful to me! I didn't know how to use the #3 settings. Now I do ^ ^
I play on easy/normal to get the perfectionist title and play on hard for Crystals, is that okay?
Yeah ^^
yeah it's totally fine i do that too!
Great tips!
*now do the same for those who are using emulators in PC to play pjsk.*
as someone who's been playing since mid 2022 and kept reinstalling the game and actually continued during my march 14 I wish I followed tip number 4 during when I was a newbie, I started to play expert during may and I wished I played more harder songs during april since I was very comfortable with the hard mode back then and had fc'd intense voice and dissapearance
Jit truly forgot me..
if you’re completely new to rhythm games, do play easy/normal difficulty. immediately jumping to hard is really difficult. i remember when i first started playing rhythm games i could not clear past 3s on arcaea (arcaea was my first rhythm game)
out of content tip but if u set the energy drink to 0 you can practice without losing any of them
I want to continue playing so badly but im so scared that I may have gotten carpal tunnel from it-
I can't play append mode! When I'm using the other phone it won't register
I love awake now's hold note, even though i don't do i right it's funny how i use one thumb and slide under the other thumb to do the slides notes. I should switch thumbs instead in the same hold note lol
I just started playing yesterday and can barely do normal. I tried hard on stardust medley and immediately lost
Very good video but I would just nitpick about using the accuracy skill (the one that makes great and good perfect). For me it would be best to not use it so that you can practice your timing on notes and as well as making accurate taps properly without relying on skills... So that's about it really great video and I hope someone might find it helpful❤❤
As a thumb player, im depressed
For me I started at hard with the most easy hard songs then worked my way up same with expert and master I recommend adjusting the settings to your own liking personally I play mirrored, multi tap lines off, background 50% and 11 speed it’s up to you on your own preference
correct, i used to play on easy-normal during june 2024, till september, now i can play on expert-master.
THQNK YOU THAMK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH YHIS HELPED A LOT EKLWIE
i started yesterday and i was able to get acustomed to level 20+ skilled songs, now im pushing myself for 30s
My biggest proseka flex is full comboing bug with the 2dmv on at 100% brightness but other than that i suck at proseka help
am i the only pearson who gets confortable with the mv? (help)
i use glasses since i have myopia and it kinda hurts my eyes when the mv is too flashy but 3dmvs are totally fine for me
Tips from me to improve if u are New.
1). If u are newbie. use 9.0-9.5 BPM for one 1month after that change it to 10-11 (now mine 11.3)
2). Play hard till u can tap the notes 85% or above perfect (for me it took 1week because I was playing bandori for a long time before play pjsk)
3). After u can get 85%+ perfect on hard. U can try low lvl expert. ex lvl23 or 24. And stop playing low lvl hard (just play hard on hardest song ex: yaminabe, whats up pop, end of hatsune miku, etc.)
4). After that u can try medium lvl expert lvl25-27 (ex: ussewa, roki, etc.)
5). Keep playing expert lvl
6). Keep playing expert lvl
7). Get few full combo on expert
8). Move to low lvl master (ex: aishite aishite aishite, etc) and try hardest song in expert.
9). Keep playing
10). Keep playinh
11). Now u are master of this game.
Im start playing this game from covid social distancing. But my phone only can get 45-50fps on this game. So that time im only playing for few month. And start playing it jagain after i get a New phone (New year2023)
Im not that good in this game but i can do lvl 32 song after focus playing it for a year.
The thing that i hate is I ALWAYS MISSING when i use 4 finger on zig-zag/tricky lane
3:57 Please don’t use perfect lock cards if you’re trying to improve at the game, it’s mostly just for getting FCs and APs, you won’t really improve at the game if you reply of them too much
few notes to take into consideration is although playing harder charts will increase your skill faster don’t play anything unreadable (unless its for fun) if you can’t read the patterns you won’t learn much. progressing through charts that are just outside of your comfort zone will insure results opposed from playing something completely outside of your skill range.
next thing i’d like to address is perfect lockers. although they’re good in a casual sense if you truly want to improve at the game i’d recommend avoiding them if possible. they’ll only activate during a specific section in each song so unless you struggle in said spot they won’t really help and if you’re using a 4 star variant you can just mash your screen. if said cards are skill level 4 across the whole team thats 35 seconds out of the average 2 minute song that you can just mash which is pretty good portion. if skill is what you wanna achieve plocks prob aren’t for you, if you don’t care to much then they’ll help with combo/acc and what not
this is coming from a player that can fc up to mas 32s and ap up to mas 31s (depending on the chart)
hope some of this advice is helpful
For some reason a distracting mv makes me focus more since i get overstimulated and if i get overstimulated i think the notes look slower :3
Yeah one of the ways i definitely improved was just throwing myself into random master charts, im slowly being able to get most masters (up to like 28 and some 29s) down to like 2-5 misses
3:44 the sync is so smooth ei forgot you can look at the notes before you hit them
i finally fc two songs on expert without even knowing until i got thr results
My clicks don't register for a frame and I get a guaranteed of 2 misses or more included with that how do I fix it? I did everything possible but not factory reset since I don't trust the cloud save of google
might be a phone issue i don't really know much but i can totally say you don't wanna trust google saving your data (i lost my lvl 146 en acc since i dropped my old phone and it broke)
@@Koushi39 :(
im stuck at playing hard mode on every song
i think im dying
The fact that the first time I played bug was with the MV and I FCd it
1. try the steps
2. get stomped by lvl 27
3. i'm just terrible
3:45 cries in thumb player
The only problem I have with using fingers is the fact my device has to actually LAY a down. it’s a painnn. 😭
6 is the one i knew as a beginner because..
of the dino game-
Ok, but how to train with more two fingers? At the first i already knew that pjsk better played with more than two fingers, but i don't know how to train it with my own fingers, i keep struggling with it, can you make video to train with that playstyle??
my brain turns off when i use more than two fingers
For the 2cd thing this is kinda weird but when I play machine poem doll without mv I do so horrible but everytime with the mv I do very good..?!?!? Like 😭
Same!!
I find that having the mv in the bg takes my mind off the stress of hitting all the notes perfectly and also the lite screen bg gives me cringe 2015 gamer outro vibe😭
2:40, me who put it up all the way to 8: 🗿
as all my devices never had great performance, i always set most settings to minimal, as fps is required for rhythm games.
i kinda assumed everyone also has this issue. now I'm pondering here like "people have enough performance to play w mv without framerate drops?"
me who literally full combo'd bugu bugu with 2D mv today
also almost full combo'd more jump more with 2d mv [2 misses]
am i immune to missing when im distracted
expert difficulty btw
Tomendo wonderz, showtimeruler, Niccori and some/most 3d MVs can be more brighter later.
Most 2dmvs can make the notes looks invisible too, so make the bg too lite so it can't be blocked! (Og MVs like copycat aren't that bright so it might not make the notes invisible but, instead it's visible.)
